agreed on the batterygate thing. ars did a pretty decent writeup on the reasons behind the CPU throttling.

my issue with Apple has always been their... "its magic!" bullshit. that marketing leads to more and more e-waste as other manufacturers follow the sucessful Apple marketing trend, because, you know... its NOT actually magic and batteries are consumable items.

"Ford, how am I supposed to operate my [insanely expensive] digital watch now [that the battery is broken]?" guess i'll just get another one!
